Kind Of Shady Lyrics

Life ain't black and white

You wake in the morning and walk through the night

Candles and kerosene

Meet in your nightmares just to borrow a dream

For all we know this feeling 's just a one act play

We've read these scenes before and gone our separate ways

I think this love song needs some time my lady

It's kind of shady

Time drips away

The icicle melts until there's nothing to say

Roses and valentines

Get locked in a drawer with tattered treasures and crimes

It seems to me our hearts are being held at bay

Caught in chains of sorrow fashioned yesterday

I think this fairy tale needs a line my lady

It's kind of shady

Spring never comes

Off in the distance, native Indian drums

Beat like the pulse of your eyes

That stare at the fear that makes me clever and wise

We've seen these games enough to know that they just don't pay

So why are we sitting in the rain in a French café?

I think this cocktail needs a lime my lady

It's kind of shady

Life ain't black and white

You wake in the morning take a walk through the night

Candles and kerosene

Meet in your nightmares just to borrow a dream

For all we know this feeling 's just a one act play

We've read these scenes before and gone our separate ways

I think this love song needs some time my lady

It's kind of shady
